How should I proceed?

Explain your needs when booking your flight

If you report your needs to your airline or travel agency, you will be sure to receive the highest quality of service and reduce your waiting time. Do this immediately after making your reservation, or at least 48 hours before your flight.
Please note that this service is available upon reservation with your airline or travel agency, at the latest 48 hours before your departure.

Your checklist for ideal assistance

Inform your airline of your difficulties to receive the best possible assistance.
Don’t forget: you can take just one cabin bag with you. We offer a baggage porter service.
Bear in mind that only one person may accompany you.
Don’t hesitate to call +33 (0)826 800 826 (€0.15/call) for any questions.

Car parks and shuttles designed for all

Did you know? People in need of assistance can also use our car parks! And you will benefit from the best parking rates. You can then choose between reaching your terminal on your own using our shuttles, which are accessible to people with reduced mobility, or being assisted by our airport staff.

You can signal your need for assistance from within all car parks by simply placing a call using the phone at the car park entry terminal.
From this point on, the Reduced Mobility assistance time periods will apply.
